"On April 1, 2001, Hooters Offered Employees The Chance To Win A Toyota As Part Of A Beer Sales Contest"
"One employee called Jodee Beery knocked it out of the park with sales and ended up winning the contest.
But instead of a car, she got a small package with a toy Yoda inside and
Hooters claimed the entire contest was only an April Fools’ joke.
A year later Berry and Gulf Coast Wings, Inc., the corporate owner of the restaurant, ended up with a settlement at court.
Berry cited breach of contract and fraudulent misrepresentation and walked out with an undisclosed sum of money in her pockets.
David Noll, her attorney, was quoted on saying that the amount of money the woman received would allow Jodee to “pick out whatever type of Toyota she wants.”"
Neither. Just had a metal roof.
Prissy is correct. The owners themselves recently noted that they had just done renovations which included a metal roof and reducing or eliminating brush next to the house (to guard against termites). The metal roof was the only one in the neighborhood. Everyone else had asphalt shingles, which can catch on fire. Other houses caught on fire as embers blew onto the roof or caught the brush next to their house on fire. Nothing magical here.
